The ‘g’ is silent, so you pronounce it like Nac\u00f5-doches. The last sylable is pronounced like the doches in super-cala-fragilastic-X-P-ala-doches.\u00a0 Most people round here say Naca-doches though.\u00a0 Nacogdoches is described as the oldest city in Texas because it is built on or near the site of Nevantin, the primary village of the Nacogdoche<\/a> tribe of Caddo<\/a> Indian some 10,000 years ago. In 1716 Spain established a mission here, and after the French and Indian War (1760’s) the town of Nacogdoches was established.<\/p>\n

Let’s get back to the beginning of the day though.\u00a0 Three years ago when I was in the area I made sure that I had my “ten to get in” and was looking for that “shack outside LaGrange<\/a>” from the ZZ Top song (they got a lot of nice<\/em> girls….)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This time I decided to stop by a town with at least as much musical notoriety and that would be Luckenbach, TX. This place was put on the map by Waylon Jennings back in April 1977 with the first release of his album Ol’ Waylon.\u00a0
